valentina

I really liked this book because it has perfect vocabulary for kids.Even though thre is a movie many kids like to read the books of movies the have made.This disney production can help children understand their vocabulary.Many kids even if they see the movie and read the book they get the main idea also.

The little Mermaid

My son is 6 years old and he loves when me and my husband reads to him. But now he began to read small books like this one and he loves it. He always is interested in a new story and because he can read now he feels proud of himself.

Great addition to the Little Mermaid video!

What a great addition to our bookshelf! My 3 year old daughter loves the Little Mermaid video, but I try to limit her viewing time. This book is a top choice to fill in on those days we skip the videos. This book includes all the major story elements and characters, a feature that is unavailable in the shorter versions I've seen. It also uses direct quotes from the video, which my daughter loves. The beautiful images from the movie are on each page, with short paragraphs, which keeps her engaged, and doesn't take nearly as long to read as you might think. I only gave 4 stars because I think that with the vast amount of material included, this book is just a little dry. I'm not sure how engaging it would be as a stand-alone read, versus as an accessory to the movie.For our purposes, though, this a great book, and we read it frequently. Money well spent!

true under the sea story

My kids love this story and so do I. It tells every important detail in a short description. Each page has beautiful pictures with only a few paragraphs so the kids get to turn the pages often. The language comes straight from the movie so that the story teller can use the character voices. This will become a favorite with your family too.
